Over the last several years, Concordia Place has experienced a shift in program demand which contributed to a net operating loss for FY14. One factor was the longer CPS school day in 2012, which negatively impacted our after school enrollment. We closed the program in August 2013, and the space was not used while we converted it to serve children ages 24-36 months. These new programs were licensed in January 2014, and we are working to bring them to full capacity.

Best Practice Program Award

Concordia Place fosters a sense of community by offering six intergenerational events each year.
These events attract over 50 volunteers who gave over 422 hours of their time.
We strengthen the community by fostering individual growth and opportunity for all: children receive quality care on a sliding tuition scale; teens realize their full potential by developing leadership skills; adults become more engaged in our society through English as a Second Language classes; and seniors stay connected, active and independent.
42%
The number of unemployed youth was 3.4 million as of July 2014 (Bureau of Labor Statistics). Teen uemployment rate in Illinois is among the highest in the United States. 76 paid internships are provided to at-risk teens by our Emerging Leaders Sprouting Out Initiative on a year-round basis.
Our sliding tuition scale effectively lowers the percent of income families spend on child care services from 42% to 14%, thus promoting economic mobility for low-income households.
Our Friendly Visitor Program is more than just a transportation service. We provide the human connection to those who need it most.
“ I have recently been using your volunteer driver services to take me to the hospital for my chemotherapy treatments as I am a stage 4 cancer patient. I really appreciate this service and want to thank you.”
